Nice one. Haven't seen that one before.
All the straights I've seen stamped 14 look so much alike.

Thanks! There is a lot of mystery behind the stamped 14 razors, the origin and what not. There appears to be dead ringer similarities between certain Solingen, Filarmonica, and Spanish 14 blades that are undeniable. This Hoppe 14 appears to be one of them.

Discobolo, probably from a Dorko blank. This razor, according to my friend Paolo Cinotti, one of the best Solingen experts, might have been sold to customers in high end hotels around the 50's

Beautiful, very regal looking. Discobolohas a nice ring to it, I like that.

Thanks Antoine, Doc made the scales. Perfect execution would be an understatement.

Being at least 120 years the warranty on the blade "Five year guarantee Electric" is since long void. Even so this early full hollow still is a proof of masterly craftsmanship. It might have been one of the first razors grinded in ERNs revolutionary die Hexe (The Witch) grinder. Once you get used to the +3" edge it's a marvelous shaver. I use it sparingly to make sure that this artefact won't be lost for the future generations. I once in a while take it out of the cabinet and look at it to contemplate its history and admire its beauty.

Fabulous ERN razor Arne. My shaver for today has similar spinework. It's a Veritable Brivady 7/8 shown with my Akubra Cattleman and a background of Banksia Giant Candles.

Cheers, George

George,
I would very much like to have that razor in my small collection. Spanish point, thumb notch, non gold etching, just the way I want them. The grand flowers in your garden would die of frost bites here within a week unless of course the deers didn't eat them first.

Aust 6/8 thumb notch "The Rhino". I can only once join in with others; this is truly a great razor, not just the design but also the quality and the shaving capabilities. If Herr Aust would read this: Please make another thumb notch model that looks like Georges´ above in the same quality as "The Rhino". I would buy it at once.

Superb !!

Cheers! Keeping the picture and text simple, I've rather missed conveying to you all just what an absolutely superb shave this was. We all have good shaves and we do have those memorable shaves. This was very good and very memorable.
